Washington. Questions are constantly being raised about US President Joe Biden’s contesting the presidential election. His fellow Democrat leaders are demanding him to withdraw from this race. However, Biden is firm on his decision and is trying to become president again. Amidst increasing pressure from Democrat leaders and party supporters, he finally made a promise yesterday that if doctors tell him that his ‘medical condition’ is not good, then he will think about withdrawing from this election. However, this promise of Biden may now cost him heavily.

President Joe Biden has now been found infected with Kovid-19. The White House said on Thursday that President Biden’s Kovid-19 test has come positive and he is feeling “mild symptoms”. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement, ‘After his first event in Las Vegas today, President Biden’s Kovid-19 test came positive. He has been vaccinated and has received a booster dose and is experiencing mild symptoms.’
Biden will now return to Delaware, where he will isolate himself and continue to fully perform all his duties during that time. He said the White House will provide regular updates on the President’s condition as he continues to perform all the responsibilities of the office while in isolation.
Earlier, 81-year-old Biden was asked on American news channel BET News if there was anything that would force him to reconsider the 2024 election campaign. He said, ‘If I have a medical condition, if the doctor comes to me and says you have this problem or that problem.’
However, Joe Biden has not clarified what kind of medical problem he was talking about. In such a situation, now the question has become more strong whether Joe Biden will withdraw from the presidential race after the interruption in the campaign due to infection with Kovid-19.
